Respuesta :

Answer:

The total teachers in the school are 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

In a school math teachers are 30%.

Now, to get the total teachers in school if there are 15 math teachers.

Percentage of math teachers = 30%.

Number of math teachers = 15.

Let the total number of teachers be [tex]x[/tex].

So, according to question:

[tex]30\%\ of\ x=15[/tex]

⇒[tex]\frac{30}{100}\times x=15[/tex]

⇒[tex]0.30\times x=15[/tex]

⇒[tex]0.30x=15[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 0.30 we get:

⇒[tex]x=50[/tex]

Therefore, the total teachers in the school are 50.

Answer:
